About Me

I am a student of human nature first, and a performance artist second, amongst many other things.
As you may be aware, I am something of a magician, though I don't really put much stock in linking rings, and dissapearing ladies and such. I prefer something a little more subtle and interesting.
I deeply study various interesting, ecclectic, and generally obscure disciplines, such as victorian style charlatanism, con games and scams, traditional magic, oracular techniques and systems such as the tarot and palmistry, as well as more standard areas of study such as mnemonics and psychology.
I take the concepts of these vastly different yet very complimentary disciplines, and blend them together into a style of performance art that most people seem to find quite interesting and compelling.
I am simply ecstatic that I have been able to turn my odd collection of skills into something that has brought so much interest to my little perspective on the nature of the universe we all share. ..

My Interests

People, and what they're thinking. Psychology, Biology, and the Occult. Deception and Illusion. Philosophy, Science, and Futurism.
